Omfg, chemtrails are real because Tennessee is trying to ban them

Tennessee is trying to ban 'chemtrails' from planes based on a wild conspiracy theory

Lawmakers in Tennessee are trying to ban chemtrails in a bill based on a conspiracy theory.

SB 2691 passed in the Senate on Monday, according to The Tennessean. It has not yet advanced in the house.

The chemtrail conspiracy theory claims that commercial aircraft spray chemicals into the atmosphere for malign purposes.

This is referenced in the state's bill, which claims the federal government "may conduct geoengineering experiments by intentionally dispersing chemicals into the atmosphere."

The bill says: "The intentional injection, release, or dispersion, by any means, of chemicals, chemical compounds, substances, or apparatus within the borders of this state into the atmosphere with the express purpose of affecting temperature, weather, or the intensity of the sunlight is prohibited."

In reality, the trails produced by jets, called contrails, are made of water vapor.

Sounds like a good enough thing to outlaw, compared with their anti-drag bills. Maybe next time, they can try to actually ban something that both A) Actually exists, and B) is actually causing legit problems.
